Druids are one of the most interesting classes in Diablo 4. Theyre not only able to control animals they can turn into animals (and also cast powerful spells). The result is a class thats packed with complex ability combinations that can deal massive damage. As such, designing an ideal Druid build is a puzzle in its own right. Thats where we come in, with our suggestions of the best Druid builds for Diablo 4 season 7.Druids can cast storm spells, control the earth, summon companions, or shapeshift into one of two creatures: a Werebear or a Werewolf.

Druids have access to six Key Passives, but four builds that primarily stem from them:WerebearWerewolfStormEarthWerebear is the Druids more defensive transformation, although it can be extremely deadly when built out correctly. Werebears will take advantage of either the Ursine Strength Key Passive or the Bestial Rampage Key Passive. Werewolf builds are the faster, deadlier Druid builds, but theyre also far less defensive. Werewolf builds will use either the Lupine Ferocity Key Passive or the Bestial Rampage Key Passive.Druids caster builds mimic shapeshifts. Earth builds are the more defensive of the two (and are typically melee-based), and will use either the Earthen Might or Natures Fury Key Passives. Storm skills are heavy Spirit spenders, and can be cast from much further away. Storm builds benefit from the Perfect Storm or Natures Fury Key Passives.Many of the class Legendaries allow you to transform certain skills into other skills (turning all Storm skills into Werewolf skills, for example). But if youre building your own Druid class, keep in mind that youll end up building either a caster or a shapeshifter and selecting one of these Key Passives. However, its also important to keep in mind that with the use of some powerful Legendaries and Uniques you can make shapeshifter builds that are also casters.Looking for other Diablo 4 builds?
